[-=LoneWolf=-]

[Doomhammer]

Damned, he never looked so good! If I end up buying this one it's YOUR fault Lonewolf!

 

[DarkKnight2k4]

I can't wait for mine to come in !!!! Come on Viking !!!!!!!!!!

 

[Doomhammer]

I'm THIS close to ordering this guy... the wife's gonna kill me.

 

[DarkKnight2k4]

Mine sees me selling stuff so I am safe. I can't wait for this guy to come in.

 

[DarkKnight2k4]

Anyone know where this one is ?

It was due in October... :maul

 

[DarkKnight2k4]

This thread died... but I finally put mine together last night. I will take some pics tonight and post them. This line along with SS PF's will bankrupt me.

 

[wookster]

Looking forward to some more in hand pics.

 

[Doomhammer]

Looking forward to some more in hand pics.

I 2nd that, still thinking of buying this one.

 

[DarkKnight2k4]

I'll try tonight...

 

[IrishJedi]

Damn this is a fantastic figure.

 

[DarkKnight2k4]

Ok, here you go... not great... but it gives you an idea....

I really like this line, though I am very selective in my purchases...

Just bought this fig from DarkKnight, cant wait for it to get here, it will be my first Hot Toys Military fig. Now for a question. I like to have things in twos, so what would be a nice Hot Toys military fig to go along with this one? Would it be best to buy another one of these and just get a different headsculpt?

Of course, that is the other fig that DarkKnight has for sale! I'm not the most knowledgable when it comes to the military stuff, but would two different types of soldiers like that be together in a combat scenario? I figured that they would have similar gear/camo.

Well, for starters, they are both Marines, and are both in desert combat camo.

Definitely a match IMO.

That's a great suggestion. Personally I'd prefer to team him up with the upcoming 10th Mountain figure:

Another awesome choise would be the 23rd regiment marine sniper:

Both look like the marines you'd find or would have found in Iraq the past years. And they don't have that select unit or special forces flavor taste to them, those are regular grunts. Both come with secundary weaponry as well so they don't need to be displayed as snipers.

Thanks everyone for the suggestions.

He has the same bdu's as the SAW Gunner, so they would go together well. Now to find one...Anbody know where to get one?
